if you are an obama supporter leaning toward president obama, what this tells you is that we've got slow and steady growth. not as good as we'd like it to be. 171,000 is a little better than 60% of what we really need for a strong growing economy. if you're a romney supporter, you're going to focus on the unemployment rate being 7.9% versus 7.8%. in the state of ohio there are a lot of things going on economically including shale gas, hydraulic fracturing or fracking as we call it. here in toledo there's a slow bubbling resurgence of the city that's right behind me, very slow. the jeep plant, i just spoke to a man here and it's resonating around here that mitt romney attack where he says president obama, sure, he may have bailed out the auto companies but did it to create jobs in china and suggesting that jeep is going to build vehicles in china, i've heard people say things like disgusting offensive. so that didn't play out all as well in some of these auto places like this in youngstown. bottom line, ohio like some of the big swing states has an unemployment rate lower than the nationa

obama. certainly the democrats are afraid of what romney might do, the tea party takeover. i think it feels so long because the -- you're not burning solar. you're not flying. you're burning diesel to get there. i think it's been tough. >> and you could ask, what is the effect of all of the negative advertising -- i would argue at this point, they kind of cancel each other out. people would rather watch bars than these ads. but over the summer, a huge amount of negative advertising which characterized mitt romney as out of touch, et cetera, and you could argue that that set the tone for this campaign. >> what i think is interesting now is i wonder if people haven't tuned all this stuff out, tuned out the pundit, tuned out the ads -- >> what? >> think about what you're saying. >> i think they may not even be listening to us. but i think people's pocketbooks may be talking to them now. you have some late improvement in the economy in terms of the housing market. i just can't imagine at this po

and president obama has spoken. he's promised he will not sign any bill that mortgages our future to pay for handouts to the wealthiest 2% of americans. i only hope house republicans have been listening. >> we've been responsible even as we've remained firm on the point. no tax increases now for promised spending cuts that won't materialize later. the american people have seen that game before. and they won't be fooled again. >> reporter: over at the white house, the talk of breaking the no-tax increase pledge got a positive response. >> some of the comments you mentioned are a welcome and they represent what we hope is a difference in tone and approach to these problems. >> bottom line, talks continue. the president called both speaker boehner and speaker reid over the weekend as one republican aide put it the fact they're still talking is progress when it comes to washington. a democratic aide, though, saying they don't have staff huddling in a conference room going over spreadsheets and where they need to get to
